An image that popped up on Google’s I/O homepage that is leading some to believe that they may have inadvertently revealed some design. In fact if you weren’t looking, you probably would have glazed right over it. But an image of a Nexus 5 is showing some small revisions to the
status bar icons introduced in Android 4.4 KitKat. You can see a tweaked WiFi status and smaller battery icon, and it appears that everything if finally leveled in relation to other status icons.
Yes, we’ve noticed the time says 4:40 (usually indicative of the Android version) which either means the designer didn’t want to make things too obvious, or that additional KitKat updates are coming around the bend
For Google I/O 2014 next week, we just want to say we aren’t expecting much outside of updates to Google apps and lots of
talk about Google Nearby — nothing about major firmware updates until much later in the year.
